# Performance Prediction Toolkit (PPT)
Predict the performance of physics codes
## Latest
We are releasing a new lighter version of PPT, called as [ppt_lite](./ppt_lite).

## Installation
###### Dependencies
PPT depends on another LANL licensed open source software package named SIMIAN PDES located at https://github.com/pujyam/simian.
**Simian** relies on python package _greenlet_
_pip install greenlet_
PPT installation is simple, just checkout the code as follows
> git clone https://github.com/lanl/PPT.git
## Usage
Let's assume the PPT is cloned into your home directory (/home/user/PPT)
In the _code_ directory PPT is organized in three main layers:
1. **hardware** -- contains the models for various CPUs and GPUs, interconnects,
2. **middleware** -- contains the models for MPI, OpenMP, etc.
3. **apps** -- contains various examples. These examples are the stylized pseudo (mini) apps for various open sourced physics codes.
### Runnning PPT in _Serial mode_
For example, we run SNAP simulator in serial with one of the PPT hardware models as follows:
> cd ~/PPT/code/apps/snapsim
> python snapsim-orig.py in >> out
where, _in_ and _out_ in the above command are input and output files of SNAPsim.
## Classification
PPT is Unclassified and contains no Unclassified Controlled Nuclear Information. It abides with the following computer code from Los Alamos National Laboratory
* Code Name: Performance Prediction Toolkit, C17098
* Export Control Review Information: DOC-U.S. Department of Commerce, EAR99
* B&R Code: YN0100000
